Media General's Publishing Division to Be Reorganized

Posted on July 28, 1998

Media General's Publishing Division will be reorganized effective Aug. 1, to reflect the expanding role of its community newspapers. Terry Hall, currently regional publisher for the Virginia-Western Region, will assume the division-wide role of senior vice president for community publishing with responsibility for all newspapers in Virginia and North Carolina with circulation of 50,000 or less.

According to Graham Woodlief, president of the publishing division, "Terry Hall is a proven newspaper executive who epitomizes the qualities necessary for success in community publishing. As a division, we look forward to the continued growth of our smaller newspapers under her leadership."

Prior to joining Media General in 1995, she had been a newspaper publisher in Lynchburg, Christiansburg, Charlottesville and Marion, Va., and in Bryan College Station, Texas.

Media General is an independent, publicly owned communications company situated primarily in the Southeast, with interests in newspapers, broadcast and cable television, recycled newsprint production, and diversified information services.
